Contesting meaning: Newfie and the politics of ethnic labelling

The ethnic label Newfie is a site of ideological dispute: for some, it is simply an informal term for residents and expatriates of the Canadian province of Newfoundland, for others it may function as an in–group term of solidarity which takes on negative connotations when used by non–Newfoundlanders, and for still others it is the equivalent of a racial slur. In this study we first trace the history of the term, a fairly recent innovation. We then examine present–day attitudes as expressed in (provincial and national) media discourse and in self–report data. We argue that debate over Newfie is part of a larger ideological struggle concerning the commodification of an ‘invented’ Newfoundland culture, which itself must be understood in terms of Newfoundland’s socioeconomic position as Canada’s poorest province. Finally, we compare the Newfie case to other instances of contested group labelling.     

公司价值解析

作者认为,相对于其重要性而言,关于公司价值尤其是其定量方面的研究很不充分。作者在总结前人的研究,建立了公司价值的定量描述模型,分析了公司价值增长的类型,说明了内部融资和外部融资下公司价值的不同,进而解释了上市公司普遍存在的“规模偏好”和“圈钱偏好”。     

我国风险投资机构激励约束机制研究

20世纪80年代以来,为了解决"资本提供者-风险投资家"、"风险投资家-风险企业"之间的激励约束问题,美国等发达国家风险投资机构主要采取了有限合伙制的组织形式.目前,我国各省市风险投资机构的组织形式基本为事业型公司制,这一方面很难解决风险投资提供者与风险投资运作者之间的产权代理关系;另一方面导致较高的运行成本,使代理者与被代理者双方在投资运作方面存在信息不对称.因此,建立有限合伙制的风险投资机构,解决风险投资提供者与风险投资运作者之间的激励约束问题,是目前我国风险投资机构迫切需要解决的问题.     

Late Life Gambling: The Attitudes and Behaviors of Older Adults

For a significant number of retired older adults (aged 65+), gambling has become a new form of recreation and entertainment. While prevalence studies have examined the incidence of problem gambling in other age groups, little research attention has been paid to the impact of gambling on older adults since the increase in availability and accessibility of legalized gambling within the last ten years. This study investigated the prevalence of problem gambling behaviors (SOGS-R), depression (GDS-15), levels of life satisfaction (SWLS), and motivations for gambling among older adults. A total of 315 older adults completed the study questionnaire and were grouped and analyzed according to those sampled from gambling venues and those from within the community. Results of the study found the most frequent accession and spending on several types of gambling occurred among older adults who were sampled at gambling venues. Older adults who were sampled at gambling venues were also found more likely to have higher levels of disordered gambling than older adults from the community, as measured by the SOGS-R. Relaxation, boredom, passing time, and getting away for the day were also the most likely reported motivations for the older adults who were gamblingpatrons. These findings provide an initial profile of older adults and their attitudes, motivations and gambling behaviors.

New ideas and fertility limitation: The role of mass media

This article investigates the mass media as a social change that shapes individual behavior primarily via ideational mechanisms. We construct a theoretical framework drawing on social demography and social psychology to explain how mass media may affect behavior via attitudinal change. Empirical analyses of 1,091 couples in the Chitwan Valley Family Study, using detailed measures of social change from rural Nepal, show that exposure to the mass media is related to childbearing behavior, and to preferences for smaller families, weaker son preferences, and tolerance of contraceptive use. This result should motivate greater research attention to the influence of changing ideas on behavioral changes, particularly in the study of families.

论罪刑法定原则的理论基础

罪刑法定原则自其产生发展至今,已成为各国刑法普遍确认的基本原则,一些国际人权条约也对该原则予以肯定。启蒙的自由主义思想、三权分立思想和心理强制说为罪刑法定的诞生奠定了理论基础,但随着理论的发展和社会的变迁,这些思想已经衰落。现代为罪刑法定提供理论支持的是民主思想、法治思想和人权思想。
